Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate
EN
correspond to your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power supply
cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power supply socket is
not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance with current regulations,
consulting a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed.

5/ USE

First use
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new
product, then dry thoroughly.
Important!
• Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
• After transport, unpacking and installation, let the appliance rest at least 2 hours in vertical
position before connecting to the power supply.
• Let the appliance run for at least 2 hours before inserting fresh or frozen foods.
Temperature setting
The thermostat (9) for setting the temperature is at the rear just left of the condenser (8). Use
a screwdriver to change the setting.
Thawing food
Frozen food can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature before
being cooked, depending on your needs. Follow the food manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.
WARNING: Thawed foods cannot be re-frozen. Consume quickly.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance, observe the followings.
• Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.
• Cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour. Wrap in polythene bags and
place on the glass shelves above the vegetable drawer.
• For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the vegetable drawer.
• Butter and cheese should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in tin foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
• Milk bottles should have a cap and should be stored in the door racks.
• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
